63, the demeanor is not right (2nd update)
For several days, Bai Rongcheng and Bai Rongxin went out early and returned late, constantly discussing and planning with shopkeepers, suppliers, partners and others. There are still more than two months to go before the tenth day of the first month of May, and there is still time to go out to Bianjing, and the remaining preparation and planning time is less than two months.
Among the younger generation, Bai Fujian has always studied and trained with Bai Rongcheng and Bai Rongxin, and he naturally will not miss such a major event. And Bai Fuli, although he has always been regarded by the Bai family as the hope of entering the gentry, but this important matter that determines the future pattern of the Bai family, as the eldest son of the Bai family, should also participate. So the brothers also followed their fathers and spent every day in the mountains and seas.
In the inner house, although the women are not directly involved, the Xu family and the Zhai family are also busy every day, the men are working hard outside, and the women naturally have to do a good job in logistics. Including Bai Xiuning, who will get married next year, also follows his mother and sister-in-law to learn to take charge of the feed.
The only ones who are idle are Bai Xiuqing and Meng Qingyun.
But today is a bit of an exception, Bai Xiuqing received an invitation from the little sister and went out for a small gathering. Meng Qingyun finally got free, sat in the study, and wrote a letter to his father Meng Jin.
Asakusa sharpened the ink for her, glanced at the contents of the letterhead, and said, "The girl is going to tell the second official about the affairs of King Lu's mansion?" ”
Meng Qingyun said: "The civil unrest in Yizhou ended in the Lu Palace. Since his father is secretly investigating this matter, King Lu's Mansion will definitely not be able to get around. Naturally, I want to tell him about the Lu Palace, so that he can be vigilant. ”
Asakusa nodded: "Yes, although we have escaped for the time being, there is no clear explanation of this matter, and it is always worrying, and I don't know if there will be any tricks on the side of King Lu's mansion." The girl should tell the second official and ask him to make the decision for us. ”
Meng Qingyun originally only thought that there was no one to rely on, so he could only deal with the affairs of King Lu's Mansion by himself. But now he knows that Meng Jin is safe and sound, and from his various actions, it can be inferred that he is a wise and scheming man, and he can be trusted. Although she has no impression of this father, and she doesn't even know whether the other party is tall or short, fat or thin, it does not hinder the father-daughter relationship between them. The daughter is remembered by others, how can the father not know.
Telling the truth is a matter of course.
An Ansheng finished writing the letter, sealed his mouth, and said to Asakusa: "You send a little girl to the front to keep an eye on, if the uncles come back, regardless of whether they are the eldest uncle or the second uncle, come back to me quickly, and I will send this trust to the uncle." ”
Asakusa responds and is about to arrange.
As a result, Bai Xiuqing ran in in a hurry, and almost collided with her.
"Big news! Big news! ”
Bai Xiuqing casually let go of Asakusa, rushed into the house, grabbed Meng Qingyun and jumped and laughed.
Meng Qingyun said: "What big news, you are crazy?" ”
Bai Xiuqing snorted her: "You are crazy." Then he said excitedly, "Li Xiaoqi is going to climb the Yellow Mountain to find materials for the long scroll he is about to draw." Many people in the city know about it, and everyone is making an appointment to go together! ”
Meng Qingyun looked up to the sky and stroked his forehead: "Is Li Xiaoqi a top-notch idol?" Every move needs to be watched by everyone? ”
"What top-notch idols?" Bai Xiuqing was taken aback, "Li Xiaoqi is so good-looking, of course everyone cares about his every move, isn't this normal." ”
"Then he wants to climb Huangshan, what does it have to do with me, what are you doing when you come to tell me this?"
"Let's go to Huangshan too! You see, how good the weather is today, lukewarm, climbing the mountain to enjoy the scenery, what a beautiful thing! ”
Meng Qingyun nodded her nose: "You, you really want to become someone's pug, and follow him behind his ass every day." ”
Bai Xiuqing wrinkled her nose cutely: "I want to become a dog, maybe I can be held in his arms......" Imagining herself like a puppy being held in Li Xiaoqi's arms and caressed, she laughed again.
Meng Qingyun looked unbearable, shook her off, and ran to the Luohan couch to sit far away.
Bai Xiuqing came over and said flatteringly: "Good Yuan Niang!" Look at the last tasting feast, we came back in a hurry, and Mrs. Li probably didn't remember me as a person. This time, many girls in the city called their fathers and brothers to accompany them, preparing to climb the mountain and enjoy the scenery with Li Xiaoqi. What do you think, the scenery of Huangshan is picturesque, there are beautiful scenery, there are beauties, and Li Xiaoqi painted this scenery into his long scroll, what a romantic story. How could I miss such excitement! ”
Meng Qingyun said lazily: "Then if you want to go, you can go, don't pull me." ”
Bai Xiuqing's eyes widened: "Of course you have to go too!" The two of us have always been inseparable, and Meng has always been indistinguishable! ”
Meng Qingyun said in horror: "When did we become so inseparable? ”
Bai Xiuqing grabbed her arm and began to shake: "Good Yuan Niang!" Come with me! Come with me! ”
"Oops, I'm dizzy......"
Bai Xiuqing didn't care, and pestered her unrelentingly.
At this time, Asakusa ran in.
"Yuan Niang, the two uncles are back!"
Meng Qingyun immediately jumped up and said, "Quickly take my letter." ”
She took the opportunity to shake off Bai Xiuqing, took Asakusa with her, and ran out in a puff of smoke.
"What are you doing?"
How could Bai Xiuqing let her go, and chased her out with her skirt.
The two sides ran into the garden one after the other, and chased along the viewing lake.
When I arrived outside Congshan Hall, I happened to bump into Bai Rongcheng, Bai Rongxin and a group of people.
Meng Qingyun stopped, panting, and before he could speak, Bai Xiuqing rushed up with an arrow step from behind, rushed over and hugged her, and shouted, "Look at you still running!" ”
Bai Rongcheng was thinking about things, and was hit by these two sisters, and subconsciously shouted: "What are you doing?!" ”
Meng Qingyun and Bai Xiuqing, only then did they notice that Bai Rongcheng and Bai Rongxin were followed by a group of people, in addition to Bai Fuli and Bai Fujian, there were also several middle-aged men, looking at their outfits, they all looked like characters with heads and faces, and all of them were not smiling.
The two sisters sensed that the atmosphere was not right, and quickly stood up with their hands together, and saluted and greeted.
Bai Fujian stood at the back of the crowd and stuck out his tongue at Bai Xiuqing and grimaced. Bai Xiuqing endured his anger and ignored him.
Meng Qingyun said: "I have a letter to my father and want to ask my uncle to send it for me." ”
Bai Rongcheng is still serious, Bai Rongxin has always been more kind to the juniors, and stretched out his hand and said, "Give it to me." ”
Asakusa stepped forward and handed him the letter.
Bai Rongxin accepted the letter and said, "I'll send someone out when I turn around." We still have things to discuss, so go back first. ”
Meng Qingyun and Bai Xiuqing bowed their heads in response, took two steps back obediently, and left with small steps. Asakusa and the maidservants who followed Bai Xiuqing naturally ran behind the girls' buttocks.
Bai Rongcheng and Bai Rongxin took a group of people into Congshan Hall.
Turning behind the bushes, Bai Xiuqing grabbed Meng Qingyun, because she stopped too suddenly, Meng Qingyun almost fell backwards.
"What's the matter?"
Meng Qingyun was unhappy to be straightened by her crooked collar.
Bai Xiuqing's face was solemn, and she said mysteriously: "Don't you think that the uncle's demeanor is wrong?" ”
